About 5 Manor Farm Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

5 Manor Farm Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedford, Bedford (MK45 4TB). It has a recorded floor area of 159 m² (around 1711 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.
